The search box.

Post by VictorParkerPIM »

I like the changes to the search box, Ctrl+Q to focus on the search box and ESC to reset.
It is a little awkard for me to use Ctrl+Q, I find it quicker and easier to use a single key to focus on the search box. I changed Ctrl+Q shortcut to the single key "grave accent" on the lower part of the tilde key under the ESC key. The ESC and the Grave Accent being next to each other makes it much easier with a lot less hand motion. Two reasions I choose the key under the ESC key. (1) The keys are close to each other.
(2) There's almost no use for the Grave Accent key, so why not use it for a shortcut key?
After Ctrl+Q was changed to the Grave Accent key it still says Ctrl+Q in the search box.

1. That's exactly why we offer shortcut customization, so that everyone can customize their shortcuts exactly how they want them.
2. Thank you for letting us know that the default shortcut is still showing in the tip. We will address this in the next version update.

Thanks, it's getting harder to find something that needs improving.
